From: "Rev. Ivan Stang" <stang@subgenius.com>
This may not be entirely accurate and is surely not
complete. I went
from the time-stamps on the photo and audio files I
have. By
definition this list is Stang-centric, though. What
worries me is that
what I remember may be drastically different from what
other SubGenii
remember. PLEASE ADD OR CORRECT ANYTHING YOU CAN.
